List of Relationship Dealbreakers That You Should Not Ignore

We all have them. Those little things that, when they show up in a relationship, make us think, "uh-oh." Maybe we had a gut feeling about it from the beginning, or perhaps it took a little longer to reveal itself, but eventually, that thing showed up and made us realize that this just wasn't going to work. 

This blog post will discuss common relationship deal breakers that people should not ignore. If you are experiencing any of these things in your relationship, it might be time to end it before things get too complicated.

Your Significant Other Hasn't Told Anyone About You

This is a big one. If your significant other hasn't told their family and friends about you, it might be because they are embarrassed by you or they don't see the relationship going anywhere. Either way, this is not a good sign. It's essential to be in a relationship with someone proud to show you off to the people who matter to them.

You're Always The One Initiating Contact

If you're always the one initiating contact, it might mean that your partner is not as interested in the relationship as you are. This can be frustrating and discouraging. You should be in a relationship with someone who is just as excited to talk to and see you as you are to talk to and see them.

Your partner is Always Busy

We all have busy lives, but if your partner is always too busy to see you or even talk to you, it might be a sign that they are not prioritizing the relationship. This can be frustrating and make you feel like you're not a priority in their lives. If you're feeling like this, it might be time to end the relationship.

You Don't Trust Your Partner

If you don't trust your partner, it's probably because they have given you a reason not to trust them. Whether they have lied to you in the past or you just have a gut feeling that something isn't right, it's important to listen to your instincts. If you don't trust your partner, having a healthy and happy relationship will be very difficult.

Doesn't Support Your Dreams and Goals

Being in a relationship with someone who supports your dreams and goals is essential. If your partner constantly puts you down or tells you that your goals are unattainable, it's time to end the relationship. You should be with someone who believes in you and wants to see you succeed.

Always Arguing

If you find yourself arguing with your partner more often than not, it might be time to end the relationship. It's normal to have disagreements, but it's not healthy if they are constantly leading to arguments. You should be able to discuss it without it turning into a full-blown argument.

You're Not Happy

This is the most important one. If you're unhappy in your relationship, it's time to end it. Life is too short to be in an unhappy and unhealthy relationship. Don't ignore the signs that something is wrong. If you're not happy, end the relationship and find someone who will make you happy.

Substance Abuse

Substance abuse is a big problem in many relationships. If your partner abuses drugs or alcohol, it's vital to end the relationship. Substance abuse can lead to many problems, including domestic violence, financial problems, and mental health issues. It's not worth staying in a relationship with someone abusing substances. Get out now and find someone who is healthy and happy.

Unfaithful

Cheating is a dealbreaker because it breaks the trust that is so essential to a healthy relationship. Once someone cheats, it isn't easy to trust them again. Cheating can also lead to other problems, such as jealousy and insecurity. If you're in a relationship with someone who has cheated on you, it's probably time to end the relationship. Find someone who is loyal and trustworthy.

Constant Jealousy

Jealousy can be a normal emotion, but when it's constant, it can be a problem. If your partner is always jealous, it might be because they are insecure or have trust issues. This can lead to arguments and mistrust. 

Jealousy can also make you feel like you're not free to live your life as you want. If you're always walking on eggshells around your partner because you're afraid of setting them off, it's time to end the relationship. Find someone who is secure in themselves and trusts you.

Not Sharing the Same Value

Not sharing the same values is a dealbreaker because it can lead to disagreements and arguments about important aspects of life. If you're in a relationship with someone who doesn't share your values, it's likely that you'll constantly be arguing about things like religion, politics, and how you want to raise your children. This can be very frustrating and make it difficult to have a healthy relationship. It's essential to be with someone who shares your values to avoid these problems.

Lack of Vision in Life

If you're looking for a long-term relationship, it's important to be with someone who has their life together. Someone who is lazy and has no career goals is not likely to be in a long-term relationship. They might be fun to date in the short term, but eventually, you will want something more serious. Find someone who is ambitious and has their life together. Otherwise, you'll just end up disappointed.

History of Abuse

If your partner has a history of abuse, it's vital to end the relationship. Abuse is a serious problem that can lead to physical and emotional harm. If you're in a relationship with someone who has abused someone else in the past, they will likely abuse you as well. Get out now and find someone who is healthy and safe.

Selfish

Being selfish is a dealbreaker because having a healthy, happy relationship is challenging. A selfish person is only interested in their own needs and desires and doesn't care about their partner's wellbeing. This can lead to arguments, resentment, and even physical abuse. If you're in a relationship with a selfish person, it's probably time to end it. Find someone who is considerate and cares about you.

Wanting Different Things in Life

Different goals and visions for the future can be a dealbreaker because it indicates that you're not on the same page. This can lead to arguments and even breakups. If you're in a relationship with someone who wants different things than you do, it's essential to have a serious discussion about your future plans. Otherwise, you might find yourself in a situation where you're not happy. It's important to be with someone who shares your vision for the future to avoid these problems.

Bottom Line on Relationship Dealbreakers

These are just a few of the most common relationship dealbreakers. If you're in a relationship with someone who exhibits these behaviors, it's probably time to end the relationship. Find someone loyal, trustworthy, considerate, and who shares your values and vision for the future. Otherwise, you'll end up disappointed.
